Kerr, President and Managing Principal at William Kerr and Associates, to discuss his path from auto racing, music, and theater into consulting. They explore bottom-up problem solving, the difference between symptoms and root causes, and how organizations can approach AI as an aid to human judgment and execution.William draws on experiences in racing, entertainment, and business to explain why consultants should listen to the people closest to the work.
